The inaugural flight and official launch of the Parajet Skycar will be an extraordinary journey from London to Tombouctou in Mali - an intrepid maiden voyage of some 6000 km through the heart of the Sahara and the frighteningly named 'Empty Quarter.'
The Parajet Skycar expedition team will start from London, England, in January 2009, and travel through France, Spain, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania and Mali to Tombouctou, returning home via Senegal.
The car will be supported by an experienced team of overland adventurers using an assortment of all-terrain vehicles including, 4x4's, off-road motorbikes, a Parajet Paramotor, and a specialist 8x8 truck to carry supplies, bio-fuel and water. The Parajet Skycar will demonstrate its off-road ability on the ground, but will also provide invaluable aerial reconnaissance guiding the expedition through the sands of the Sahara desert.
